Some of the random green drops on Isle of Thunder are transmog items that are worth a fair bit of gold on the AH. I did not realise this until I tried to DE one, got an error message, then went searching to see if that was a known bug.

They are the ZA models that were not reintroduced when it was revamped as a 5 man.

We live in a society where people born on third base constantly try to steal second, yet we expect people born with two strikes against them to hit a homerun on the first pitch.

I vendored my green stuff ftom IoT purposefully - the whole idea of trying to sell off the stuff.. not hanks (though if I did want, I'd probably send it to a troll alt - though haven't had any leather stuff yet - okay, only did dailies 2 days over there)

If it's considered a snare, all priests should be able to remove it with Fade (assuming the proper glyph/talent, I forget which one does it.)

Thats the level 30 talent (http://www.wowhead.com/spell=108942) altho the other 2 talents are much more fun if you ask me... Dont see why shadow priests arnt able to use a mass dispel every 10 seconds when clearing trash :p

Depends on your priest availability as Mass Dispel has a target cap. Very annoying when I basically self target, and don't manage to dispel myself.

I recently leveled up a very old warlock alt and started running him through LFR. I never bothered to look at more than one or two out of game guides, I just went off of the in-game suggestion for rotation and that worked fairly well with the exception of spending the latter half of any given raid boss fight struggling with mana issues. This went on until a couple of days ago when I installed WeakAuras to play around with the warlock aura strings Theck posted a few weeks back and I noticed a spell icon on the screen I didn't recognize...

My first thought was to never mention this to anyone, but where's the fun in that?

I've been sending to DE, but... found a mace last night on the Island of Giants with a really cool glowy model, so I posted that one on the AH.

There are some warlock pet spells that are useful, for dispel 3 friendly targets, but it's not on the normal pet bar, and sits on the spellbook for pets, but it can't be dragged to your bars, pretty much you must macro it and then put the macro in the bar (or keybind if needed)

Now I'm checking all pets, fron warlock to hunter, to see if I have a useful ability not on display and use it as needed.

Not missing the memo just something I assumed about personal loot rolls that was incorrect. I believed that if a boss could drop 2/3 items then you had a higher chance of receiving an item compared to if the boss only dropped 1.

I’d have a 15% chance to get an upgrade. Now, let’s say only 2 of the 4 items are upgrades, I’d have a 7.5% chance of getting an upgrade, and a 7.5% chance of getting an item I don’t need. I’d also have an 85% chance of smashing my face on the keyboard if my luck is bad

Yeah, that's an annoying thing about them. It's what makes the tier-dropping world bosses one of the worst places to use a bonus roll (since you've got something like a 2% chance of getting a tier piece).

There's no way this 2% number can be correct. There are a lot of options that Sha (etc) drops, but the tier pieces come up way more often than 2 of 15 (or whatever) when the coin hits. About 50% in my experience that they roll tier.

(Plus, you have to take into account people that don't have access to 496/522 tier, only 483/502 ones...)

Most people want the wealth produced by a society with limited government distributed to them more generously by bigger government.

Hmm, maybe they drop tier more often. I was assuming it was te same as any boss, random item with equal chance. I've only ever received one tier piece personally, and plenty of PvP, but that anecdotal data counts for nothing.

My hunter getting tier pants 6 weeks in a row can attest to this.

Does my gold for 8 weeks in a row count?

Well any boss has a set percentage chance to drop any given item - the chance is not necessarily equal across loot drops, so the quote from AMR is, imo, misleading. The way I've understood the personal loot mechanic to work, is that you have - more or less - a set chance of getting loot, and the distribution of which loot item is dependant on the rarity of said loot item (if there are skewed chances for each of the eligable drops), i.e. if one is a 25% drop and the other is a 10% drop, you have a 5:2 chance of getting the 25% chance drop if you get a drop (afaik its a 2-roll system; 1 loot or bag, 2 what loot if loot)
